Daily Feeding Guidelines & Storage

Dogs/Puppies: begin with these guidelines. You may adjust treat portions for desired results to maintain proper hip and joint health and mobility.  If you are uncertain, consult your Balance Diet vet. tech., or ask your veterinarian. Feed more BioFloraTM  as needed.     BD-Tip:  Keep fresh water available!

Feeding/Use

1 tbsp., BioFloraTM  per 10 lbs. body weight 3 times per week Supplement  BioFloraTM  daily to every other day Use as a healthy nutritious gratifying therapeutic snack/supplement BD-Tip: feed apart or mix into food

Storage: Taking good care of your very special nutritional supplement You may find that you do not need to refrigerate BioFloraTM, though for the very best results including maintaining optimum freshness we recommend cold storage. We recommend storing back stock cool-cold. BioFloraTM  should travel well with the necessity for cold storage. Our proprietary VitaMethod process is an excellent stabilizing force, BioFloraTM is real whole natural food.
